DRAGON
year of the Dragon, sign
of Aquarius
my robot took me out
fishing for nebulae
being a sort-of poet
I will sort-of try to convince
you we did
not return home unlucky
the fish that we caught
though lacking old sci fi fins
pleaded to
be returned to the cosmos
in pure mathematics
and songs, such sad songs,
that took us through
all the universally audible
and inaudible harmonies
such strange
outlandish scales, she commented
as she and I
calculated what to do
with such a freshly caught
specimen of piscean
intangibility
year of the Dragon, sign
of Aquarius
we added
a new phenomenon
to our expanding collection
